Exploring Floristic Diversity and Medicinal Plant Uses in Venda, Limpopo, South Africa

Feddes Repertorium, Volume 137, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Plants have been an important source of medicine for thousands of years. To better understand the current diversity and usage of medicinal plants, floristic studies are essential. This report documents an expedition conducted in the Venda region of Limpopo, South Africa. The study was carried out in Shanzha and surrounding villages, as well as

From Pressure Patterns to Personalized Insoles: A Systematic Review of Demographic Influences on Plantar Pressure

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Plantar pressure distribution is a widely used biomechanical measure for characterizing foot–ground loading during gait in research and clinical assessment. Demographic variables, such as sex, age, and body weight, influence plantar loading patterns; however, findings across studies have been inconsistent, limiting direct clinical ...

Clinical Outcomes of Custom Foot Orthoses in Progressive Collapsing Foot Deformity: A Retrospective Cohort Analysis

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Progressive collapsing foot deformity (PCFD) is a painful and function‐limiting condition most commonly affecting middle‐aged and older adults. Although custom foot orthoses (CFOs) are routinely prescribed as a conservative intervention, evidence from large clinical cohorts remains limited.

Do Commercially Available Insoles Meaningfully Change Reported Comfort and Biomechanics During One Day of Wear?

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Identifying meaningful changes in comfort and any underpinning biomechanical changes is crucial to understanding differences in perceptions of footwear comfort. Research rarely considers changes in comfort, and rarely reports how meaningful these are. This study aims to utilise a portable biomechanics measurement tool to establish

Measuring In‐Shoe Plantar Strain Outcomes in the Presence of Callus: A Preliminary Study Using the STAMPS3D Measurement System

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Diabetes‐related foot ulcers (DFU) are growing in prevalence, driven by the global rise in diabetes. Plantar callus has been identified as a risk factor for DFU formation, with its presence considered highly predictive for ulceration.

Advancing Conservative Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis: 3D‐Printed Shoe Soles for Passive Toe‐Out Gait Modification

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction To evaluate whether a 3D‐printed shoe sole can passively replicate toe‐out gait biomechanics and reduce the knee adduction moment (KAM) and knee adduction angular impulse (KAAI), addressing limitations of traditional gait retraining.
